Online yoga classes and membership

People who prefer practising at home, those in regional areas without a nearby studio, and busy people who need flexible times.

Monthly memberships, class passes or single-class fees, plus occasional paid workshops or themed series.

• Yoga teacher training and clear verbal cueing
• Comfort with video software and basic audio and lighting
• Building an audience through email or social media

• Check that your insurance covers online teaching and students outside your state
• Registering for an ABN, and GST once turnover reaches the threshold
• Use music that is properly licensed, as copyright rules apply to streamed classes
• You can't see students closely, so keep instructions safe and include a health disclaimer
• Online classes are easy for others to copy, so building a loyal community matters
